Pet care experience

Family-Style Pet and Farm Care

I run an animal rescue and work from home, which means that other than running a few errands, I will be home with and have my eye on your pets for the majority of the day. Your pets would be able to socialize with mine, or I am able to keep them separated. Fenced in yard and pastures on a farm just outside of the Greeneville city limits. Experience with most breeds of dogs, cats, small animals, exotics (parrots, reptiles, fish, etc.) and farm animals.

Samantha cared for our fur grandbaby as if she were her own. Zuzu was completely at home and enjoyed her stay. The farm experience is perfect for our dog because Zu is curious and likes adventures and making new friends. Samantha is kind and very knowledgeable about animals. We had no worries while traveling and leaving Zuzu with Samantha.

Samantha is an absolute gem. Sent regular updates, accommodated last minute travel, and my 18 month old Newfoundland came home happy and relaxed. Highly recommend!

Our Eddie stayed with Samantha for a week. It was a great experience! Samantha communicated regularly with pictures and videos and responded promptly to any of our questions. Most importantly, Eddie was obviously well cared for and had a great time!! He’s an active dog so loved being able to play with the other animals and have limitless outdoor time. We highly recommend Samantha and will absolutely book again!

Our dog was well cared for and seemed to have a good time while he was there - working and watching the world go by. Samantha is excellent and we will definitely board Panda with Samantha again. She treated him like he was her own

Panda went for an overnight to see how he would do. It seems that he enjoyed the experience with exposure to the other animals. We heard he had a restful night and look forward to future visits.

Samantha was great! We were in town visiting family for the holidays and they were uncomfortable with a puppy in their home so we reached out to Samantha to puppy sit for us. We were very nervous to leave our pup with a sitter as he was only 7 months old and we live out of state. But Samantha made the whole process comfortable and our puppy seemed very happy and well taken care of. Samantha also provided us pictures and updates on how he was doing. Over all Samantha did a wonderful job and we highly recommend her and would use her again.

Schedule

Working from home, my home has multiple dog beds, crates, baby gates, etc. The dogs come in and out through a doggy door to my fenced yard or I walk them out and supervise play and potty time (depends on how familiar your pet is with doggy doors, gets along with other pets, etc.). At night they would more than likely sleep on my bed or sofa. I am able to separate any cats/other pets in a separate room to ensure that they are safe without being overwhelmed by new surroundings.

Safety, trust & environment

My pets are my children! So naturally the pets I care for (and the foster pet's I've housed) become my nieces and nephews ;) They receive love throughout the day, meals usually twice per day (and treats), free access to water and a fenced in yard to run and play in.

Pets

A typical day

You pet will be able to lounge on the sofa, play in the yard, hang out with my pets or me in my home office - their choice and preference! :) During the day I take breaks and usually check on something in the yard which results in play time. If I have a cat boarding with me, I check in and often work from the spare bedroom so that they get the love they deserve while also allowing them some seclusion and quiet time.

Samantha can host up to 2 pets per night
Your pet will need to be ok with other animals as I do have pets and run a rescue with multiple animals in/around my home. Please let me know if your pet has any allergies, likes and dislikes, food/toy/other pet aggression so that I may work around these behaviors to keep yours and my furbabies safe, happy and healthy.
